HOODOOED.
A Wild-Eyed Story About the Antics
of Farmers Possessions.


A dispatch from Pittsburg, Pa, to the
Cincinnati Enquirer says: The sun is full
of fire, and there is blood on the face of the
moon, as Farmer Thomas Mckee, of Wiki
ms township, in this county, seems to be-
lieve. His home, two miles from the village
of Turtle Creek, has been the scene of some
mighty mysterious manifestations. Mckee
is 60 years old, has lived in this vicinity
forty-f1ve years and i'll his present home
twenty years He is regarded as one of the
most reliable and reputable United Presby-
terians in the country. He, his wife and
grandniece aged Is, together with a
hired man, comprise the family. They tell
a remarkable story. Each of them is ready
to swear that he or she knows nothing what
ever of the cause of certain appearances of
witchcraft which have for ten days made
their home pandemonium Ten days ago the
trouble began. While all were away from
the house, and the doors and windows were
fastened, things were turned topsy-turvy in
doors. The family subsequently found their
clock and other goods out in the garden.
Each successive day things grew worse. Mrs.
Mckee four days ago carried one oftwo cans
of cream up from the cellar through the only
possible egress, went right hack for the other
and failed to find it. = Going upstairs again,
she proceeded to the door-yard and found
the can of cream overturned and empty.
There was nobody to be found within three
fourths of mile of the house. On Friday
of this week Mrs. Mckee and neighbor
were sitting in the house together Looking
up to the WALL they saw that an old hat
upon a peg was in flames. They had no
sooner thrown it out than towel on the
opposite side Of the house began to
blaze, though no visible means of
ignition existed in the house, and
Mr.. Mckee had in his pocket out
i'll the field every match upon the premises.
There had been a score or more of similar
unaccountable fires in the house. Hence
Mr.. McKee's precaution. These manifesto
tions have nearly driven the family crazy.
They have moved things out of the house
and guarded the occupied rooms, but all to
no avail. The subject has set the COM
munity by the ears. Nobody can have the
slightest doubt, except as to the cause. The
manifestations in a hundred forms are facts.
Mckee is not a supernaturalist, yet he
doesn't know what to expect next.

Russell Bean concealed himself when Jack

of the court. Bean did not like the appear

did not belong to him, and in his anger he
took knife and slit its ear. He was in
dicted by the grand jury and warrant
issued for his arrest. Gen jackson was
Judge then of that district, and when the
Sheriff reported that he could not arrest the
prisoner unless he killed him in the attempt,
the Judge said You haven't summoned the
right kind of men to your aid Your
Honor said the Sheriff, jocularly, 4 sum

without saying another word, went home
and buckled on his pistols, and proceeded
alone to a little hill, where Bean was

must obey the law. Bean said: Go way

was ordered to be branded on the right
